    Fukushima Pref. Aiduwakamatsushi Hanaharumachi 8-1
    A Japanese garden located in Aizuwakamatsu City, Fukushima Prefecture. The garden was originally created in the Muromachi period as part of a villa built by Ashina Morihisa. Oyaku-en means medicinal herb garden -the name is derived from the many medicinal plants which are grown in it. Visitors can enjoy the garden's seasonal scenery as well as a cup of medicinal herb tea. The garden was designated a National Place of Scenic Beauty as one of the best examples of an Edo period daimyo landscape garden.

    Right on the town loop ¥120 bus route, so I stopped in. Not especially attractive, but the remedial herb garden history is unusual.

    JR東北本線の須賀川にあります。牡丹園では有名です。雪の中に咲く赤い牡丹……かつて高畠で見たことがあるので、同じイメージで出かけてみましたが……今年の暖冬で雪が全くありませんでした。
